SOUND: how is the sound quality?
35461
The standard sound isn't bad, but nothing special. I had it for about a day before I hooked it up to my 5.1 system. There's an option in the sound section of the menu to output through the speakers on the set or output to an external device. Once you select the output to external device, it disables the speakers on the set. If you forking over the $$ for a nice set like this, you should really invest in a surround sound system to get the full experience from your media. Setting it up is as simple as running a standard audio cable (or digital optical cable) from the Audio out or Digital Optical out, clearly marked on the back of your TV, to the corresponding input on your receiver. Then just selecting the external device option in the sound menu. My father is also getting a bit hard of hearing (although he'll never admit it lol.). He has the 46" version of this set and an entry level Sony 5.1 system and absolutely loves it. Lastly, check on Amazon for a digital optical cable if that's the route you wish to go. The guys at retailers will try and sell you a $50 cable when you can get one on Amazon for $2.50. It's glass coated in reflective material and rubber that sends light based signaling. It either works or it doesn't, there's no difference in quality.

The sound out of the box is acceptable. Two down firing speakers with no bass at all. Under the sound settings I turned on "Surround" and "Bass Booster" with no noticeable effect. But like I said the sound is acceptable.

This is subjective (I didn't measure it), but it seems at least as loud as using a wired connection. I say "at least as loud" because it seems to me that it might be marginally louder. The sound quality is definitely good. I haven't noticed any distortion or loss in quality.

yes, I haven't had any trouble with the sound. You need a USB slot and the plug for the jack to plug into the computer.

The sound quality is pretty decent. It does not matter much to me as I have Home Theater attached to it.

So far I have not gotten any complains about that. When you turn the volume up but you don't have it over your ears you definitely hear music clearly. Hope that helps!

I think the sound is really good, it is enhanced by software but you can enjoy it. Obviusly it has not so much power, it is just a tablet, but the quality is good.

I own this unit, as you say it looks great but sound quality is not good, i am confortable with it as i can hear all my records and connect a dive through the aux input... Its sound quality is better than others speakers but im aware that it is not the best... Sometimes bass and low tones make the speakers vibrate, and as it doesn't has EQ the only way to fix this is lowering the volume untill its ok or lowering your device volume... This happens also while litsening LP's, CD'S , radio

The sound quality is not that great. If you're looking for low price, that's all that it has to offer - but, not great sound quality.

It sounds clear and the volume is average at best. If you are hearing impaired, you should look elsewhere. Hope that helps.

I'll add my $0.02. The sound isn't great and it's not loud enough. However, I found using headphones takes the sound quality from a 2 to a 10+. You could also purchase a small usb plug speaker.

It is average quality....I am not a music aficionado but the bass is not deep and outside of the volume controls, there are no extra features to boost the sound from what I can tell, but the midrange tones are OK for most audio content. I listen to mostly streaming content not necessarily just music, so for my purposes they work pretty great.

I would say that the sound has average sound quality. It has vibration if that would help.

The sound on mine is great. In fact, I have nothing to complain about with this system.

The sound quality is great... Its not as good as a bose mp3 player but good. I was surprised with the quality while playing a cd. The radio is not bad, the reception can be tough but it's not bad.

The sound is fine. I haven't noted any distortion even when the volume is turned up quite a bit.

Good bass. See the movie, but I think the sound quality is good. Sound is a very rich ... Compared with the old headset ... (g35) .. You probably seem satisfied.
